      Excerpt from Stovall-John-Sr-notes in Misc-Docs-Pics folder:

      Darcus (---) Stovall, widow of John2, was alive as late as 2 February 1787 when she, with her son Drury and Ann, Drury's wife, sold for £350 to John Young the 300 acres that remained of her late husband's lands, on which she then lived, excepting 1/16 acre "at the grave" (evidently the grave of her husband).[198] since she was not mentioned by name in the will, this deed is very important in that it establishes that John Stovall had but one wife who was the mother of all his children. For only five of these children are there better than rough approximations for dates of birth. Traditional order is altered in some cases to allow for known marriages of children or births of some grandchilden. John Stovall's gifts of land were not at all necessarily made in birth order.
